Called this when Hearn and the Haneys blew it.

Is Kambosos assuming that because he beat Lopez he can beat Lomachenko? Not going to happen, easy work for the Ukrainian.

LETS MOTHER****ING GO!!!!

Loma’s my favourite boxer, but I think he gets done here, sadly (for me, but mainly him)

I really hope you’re right, but I’m just looking at these young guns now and wondering what else is up for Loma. He’s had a **** load of fights, tbh

Right! Everybody knows Haney's a DUCK! I don't know why folks are acting like he's the second coming of anything. What has he really done in the sport?

It all seemed like smoke & mirrors from the jump. All of these wanna talk and act like Floyd instead of being themselves....as if we haven't been watching Floyd since the 90's.

Straight duck!

So instead of a unification, it’ll be the entitled line skipping loma jumping to the front again to get a title shot just like he’s been doing since his 2nd pro fight. Some boxers get all the entitlement while others can’t get a shot yet constantly get told “but who have you beat” despite being avoided.

He beat two top 10 ranked fighters last year and is the #2 ranked guy behind Kambosos by Ring, TBRB and ESPN.

Kambosos vs Loma is the #1 vs #2 in the division. No genuine boxing fan would hate on this matchup.

I won't celebrate until it's official who kambosos is fighting next. Hopefully it's Loma so he can be unified champ.

Snake DiBella would rather drill a hole in his knee than do Hearn any favors...
